A poem in tribute to the Odyssey story and to the spirit many of us share ...

 

 


Dedication

                 

For

Melanie, Wendy, Jonathan, and Mylene

who inspire love, pride and joy and the continuation of the dream.

For my Father

Marvin

who was always there for me.
So sadly, he died on July 25, 2006.

And for my Mother

Gwen

who has encouraged me since the cradle.

And for my late Paternal Grandparents,

Martin & Mary Smith

and my late Maternal Grandparents

Tom & Anna Darby

for all the wonderful love they gave, and the legacy of which lives on

For the larger world, this is for

Everyone

who strives to make the world a better place to live

Give some flowers to yourself if you are one of them
or give aid to those in need who do strive (and then give some flowers to yourself).

Lastly, this is for

Each and Every Child

for in you is the hope for the future of the world.
